第一千三百九十章 小剑晋级

Lin Xuan fell into a silence. Moon was the reincarnation of the Arrogant Demon King, though many things had been sealed away. Her memories hadn't fully returned, but occasionally, some scattered fragments would surface.

The so-called Life Spring might be beyond his current level to touch. Moon could use it because of her bloodline from her past life.

That demon butterfly was now contained within the Life Spring and should not harm her.

Thinking this, Lin Xuan's expression regained its composure.

"Moon, if you feel any discomfort, let me know immediately."

"Mistress, I understand; there’s no need for you to worry. The Life Spring is what it does, even though I'm still a bit confused about it, I can sense its effects," Moon raised her head and smiled slightly as she spoke.

"Sense the effects?" "Yes." The little girl opened her cherry lips and explained in detail, "The Life Spring is similar to the dantian and the spirit sea. Although the specific functions are unclear, just like a cultivator’s treasure can be nurtured within the dantian, spiritual insects and beasts can also be stored within the Life Spring, using the true essence of the cultivator for nourishment. This way, without much effort, you can accelerate the maturation of these creatures. Moreover, after consuming their master's essence qi, the spiritual insect and its host will merge in spirit."

"Ah, I see." Lin Xuan rubbed his forehead, still a bit puzzled. Since he had reached the Separation stage, he could now roughly touch the laws of nature; why store the Five Elements Essence Qi within the Life Spring when it was available at any time?

Lin Xuan's thoughts were filled with questions.

However, soon, he burst out laughing. What did it matter? The Life Spring should be something only higher-stage cultivators would encounter. When he advanced further in the Immortal Dao, the mystery would naturally unravel.

Thinking about these matters now was meaningless.

With that thought, Lin Xuan dismissed all his杂念. He had originally come to search for the treasures of the Blood Demon of Heavenly Mulberry but ended up with many unexpected gains after a fierce battle.

He felt like heaven treated him well; he wouldn't let go of the Blood Demon's treasure either. Through soul-searching techniques, he knew that Lady White Butterfly came here to find butterflies and hadn’t found any other treasures.

The items should still be on this island.

Lin Xuan turned his head, looking at a spot about a thousand feet ahead. The two mountain peaks had been reduced to rubble by their efforts.

With his divine sense released, there was no收获!

Lin Xuan's face showed some confusion but didn't lose heart. He waved his sleeves and summoned numerous tools shaped like hoes from the sky. There were thousands of them in various sizes.

Satisfied with this, Lin Xuan could now easily mobilize the essence qi of heaven and earth, making excavation much easier compared to before.

The island was vast, but he would dig three feet deep and find everything left by the Blood Demon of Heavenly Mulberry.

"Mistress, do you want to help?"

Moon's words were followed by her actions. With a wave of her hand, she condensed essence qi into pitchforks that shone brightly as they dug into the ground.

Half a month passed unnoticed.

A streak of blood cut through the sky and flew towards the horizon.

The ordinary-looking youth had a hint of disappointment in his eyes. He and Moon had thoroughly searched this deserted island but found nothing, not even a trace of the Blood Demon of Heavenly Mulberry's treasure.

Lin Xuan was certain they hadn't missed anything; it seemed the treasure didn’t exist at all.

However, Red Heaven Immortal wouldn’t lie to him. The map must have been faulty.

Lin Xuan sighed deeply. It wasn’t entirely depressing, but he understood his situation better after careful thought. Cultivators should be content with what they had. They already had so many gains: the Profound Treasure of the Five-Colored Mountains and the Heart of Spirit Control, not to mention the ice moon demon butterfly Moon obtained.

What more could one desire? Greed would only bring trouble.

With this in mind, Lin Xuan's expression brightened as he let out a long howl. The streak of blood became even more dazzling. At his current cultivation level, his speed was astonishing.

In an instant, he covered thousands of miles without exaggeration. Occasionally, when meeting other cultivators, they only saw a brilliant light flash by and didn't understand what had happened before Lin Xuan was already several miles away.

The other cultivators were naturally alarmed. Some thought it was a ghost appearing in broad daylight, while others believed they witnessed a deity descending from the heavens.

After all, the strength of someone at the Separation stage was beyond their imagination.

Lin Xuan's target was the Five-Colored Mountains. Although he knew from Fairy Ruyan that a hundred years ago, Vicky remained unharmed, Lin Xuan still wanted to see her after such a long separation.

Meanwhile, several thousand miles away from Yunzhou’s outer sea.

In Tianzhou, in the Demon Realm Mountains.

In a deep and dark cave, a non-descript figure suddenly let out a fierce roar. Under the faint light, it could be seen that Tan Xiaojian's face was twisted with rage, his eyes bloodshot, veins bulging on his neck, and traces of blood seeping from his features as he panted like an injured beast.

Despite his appearance, the spiritual pressure emanating from him was shocking. Although unstable, it seemed to have reached late-stage Immortal Core.

"Hmm, not bad, your talent is inferior to mine but still a rare genius. A hundred years of effort has brought such breakthroughs. Fine, let me help you further."

A non-male and non-female voice echoed in his ears as an astonishing amount of essence qi rose into the sky, gathering all nearby heaven and earth essence qi around that slender figure before forming a black beam that entered Tan Xiaojian's body.

"Ah!"

Tan Xiaojian’s voice grew even more agonizing. However, shortly after, his spiritual pressure surged, reaching the peak of Immortal Core with remarkable stability.

"How about this? Did I deceive you?" Feng Liang’s voice carried a hint of satisfaction.

"Hmph, you promised that decades would be enough for me to reach Separation stage, but it took a hundred years just to reach late-stage Immortal Core and was so painful," Tan Xiaojian said in a low tone, though his face showed some joy.

Though the other party failed to fulfill their promise, this advancement speed was already astonishing.

"Oh, you really want to reach Separation stage? Actually, there is a way."

Feng Liang’s shocking words rang out.
